yes, a scientist and a creationist...quite a mighty feat. He also embodied all the good of the Lutheran religion...like cutting off ties with my dad and my family because my mom was at first a catholic, and then we all became non religious. And there was no reason to get to know his grandchildren because we would be going to hell. Having his son (my uncle, a lutheran minister with a family to support) fired from the church because he had the audacity to let women read bible verses in church. Not to mention some collateral awesomeness such as having my father only go to a Lutheran hospital when he cracked his head open, and since the hospital was close to capacity, they put my dad in the polio ward to recover from his stitches...and lo and behold...polio! Hooray grandpa. And to top it all off, when he died they found some awesome nazi stuff in his posessions.

But I would like to thank him, because of him being such a giant dildo, it helped shape my dad into a super awesome person,which helped shape me into a moderately awesome person...sometimes. Thanks Grandpa
